Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often praise the flavour and heat of the food, with one diner calling the house special lettuce wraps outstanding and another naming the Cantonese style sweet and sour chicken the best they had had in a long time. Crispy beef and a curry sauce that was not too salty come up close behind. Others point to a varied menu, fresh food that arrives hot, and low prices. Several rank it as the best Chinese takeaway in Caerphilly, and one long-time resident says family have driven a distance to order it again. Friendly service is mentioned repeatedly, and one reviewer singles out a kind owner. The main caveat is a busy line, with a few noting it took a while to get through. One diner was disappointed by salt and chilli chicken wings in thick batter with an unpleasant taste, and by chips that were rock hard, as if cooked hours earlier. Preordered Christmas Eve and New Year Eve collections were ready and hot on arrival.

“This is genuinely the best place I have ever dined. The service was exceptional, food was life altering and the food came quickly and tasted very fresh! The food was incredibly cheap, around £14 for one person and an extra £3 for sides. One of the best places I have ever visited. Also, I love the owner - he was so kind and made sure I had the best experience possible!”

“Quite disappointed tonight with our food. The salt and chilli chicken wings had really thick batter on them and had quite an unpleasant taste and the chips were rock hard like they'd been cooked hours ago.”

“Been living in Caerphilly for 16 years. Tried every Chinese takeaway and China Boy is the best, hands down. Always have friends and family over and order and they always say how amazing it is. Some family have even driven a 20 mile round trip to have it again. Top drawer.”
